problems with w2k and samba PDC

[James Nord]

Samba 2.0.x can not act as a domain controler for win 2000 workstations.
Apparantly neither will 2.2.x

For samba to work as a domain controller you will need samba_tng which
is _alpha_ code and sometimes *very* broken. (it normally works better
on Linux than Solaris/sparc)
